The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

The SPLC and its defenders, including legal experts, argue that infiltrating hate groups is a standard intelligence-gathering tactic that has saved lives and helped law enforcement.

It's not new. Superman did it in the 30s, I think.

[googling]

en.wikipedia.org - Superman Smashes the Klan

A real guy did it, and it was published in the Superman comics. Though I was wrong...it was the 40s, and on the radio.

Superman Smashes the Klan is loosely based on a 16-part episode story-arc, "Clan of the Fiery Cross", from the radio serial Adventures of Superman which ran from June to July 1946.[3][6][8] In the radio serial, "Superman exposed Ku Klux Klan codewords, rituals, and its bigotry—all based on intel collected by activist Stetson Kennedy—before a national audience. The show damaged the group's reputation and led to a steep decline in membership from which the KKK never recovered".[6]
